I may be wrong but I would imagine that the postcode files available from tomtoms website would work fine.

This just amazes me.

People post on here saying they are using tt6. Everyone knows that tt6 is not LEGALLY available for download.

Here come the excuses:

I am just trying before I buy
I am using a demo version
I have a copy for evaluation
Finally, I am using a cracked version, whats the problem.

If it is illegal, the mods SHOULD DELETE THE POST.

If it is a copy supplied by TomTom to our more priveledged friends, then maybe its not appropiate to post issues until the general release date.

This is also a very effective means of being updated automatically for new versions of voices, maps etc as they are released. The current version is 1.3

The rest of Europe doesn't use the Postcode in the same way as GB and Holland.

It's more of a District Code that covers a larger area and is not down to road specific locations.

OK, so with my O2 Exec and TTN5 I have to copy the ZIP folder to the main memory to use the navigate to postcode functionality. It works fine, but uses up about 8MB of storage memory, which I would prefer to be on the 4GB SD card I have.

Has anyone tried the postcodes on TTN6 with an Exec? Can you leave the zip folder (or equivalent) on the storage card?

This thread talks of different versions of TomTom Navigator 6, how do you tell which version you have? Is there a way to know?
